This looks about right to me but so hard to judge the non-Europeans in particularly as they haven't raced against the field in nearly 2 years

Very surprising how many people are choosing Dymchenko over Kyridou and Foester. Probably because she finished 12th at the 2019 Worlds (where Kyridou and Foester didn't compete) and 6th at the 2021 Europeans (where Kyridou and Foester didn't make Final A because they had an extremely tough draw). Dymchenko finished extremely far behind the rest of the field at the 2021 Europeans and didn't make Final A at the 2020 Europeans. With all due respect, she only made Final A at the 2021 Europeans because she was in the easier semifinal and on top of that, two of the boats there didn't race so there were only four boats in that semifinal.

 

I'm not saying Dymchenko will definitely finish below Kyridou and Foester, but I don't think Dymchenko is a sure bet to qualify like people are making her out to be.

I agree on almost every Flag in your prediction...I only have some doubts on the W1X (in particular on Dymchenko) and I hope that the second quota in the M2X goes to ITA and not Russia (but it's gonna be very, very difficult)...

2 people - is this too much? OK , Kyridou qualify , this is no doubt. But why Diana can't qualify? What's wrong with Ukraine? Why can't we simply collect 150 quotas? Or should we be withdrawn from OG? We have talents and many talents. Too early you wrote off Ukraine, we will fight and bring a lot of problems to our rivals

Diana can definitely qualify. If you read the other part of my post I said Diana still has a good chance. I never wrote her off, but I don't think she's a sure bet to make it to Tokyo.

 

I am not anti-Ukraine. I wish your country all the best for the Olympics :)

If the lights light up exactly at the correct moment, he was definitely first, since his light went on first. Not sure if those lights are 100% accurate though?

The only thing I know is that we very likely won't qualify anyone. :d I am just glad that we will have that one boat in rowing, before COVID I was very afraid that we will completely miss this discipline.

Only finals at Monday

I only found live audio commentary. Not a nice move, they need the tv infrastructure for Monday so why don`t they stream today and tomorrow as well? :(

    • North American rugby quotas ( and qualified automatically)    M: and W: and  
    • I remember Caroline Golubitsky. She competed with Vezzali for a while but not for long. Rita Konig, whom Vezzali defeated in the final of the Olympic Games in 2000, was more famous, as well as Sabine Bau and Anja Mueller. From what I remember, the Germans competed fiercely with us at some point, but they almost always lost.
    • Shemyakina won a bronze medal in 2014 Worlds and was one of our leader but leave the squad due to pregnancy (she has 2 daughters if I'm not mistaking, so she chose family instead of sport). And speaking of foil we have back in the day Sergiy Golubitskyi, who was Olympic silver medalist and won some medals in other competitions and coached his wife Caroline Golubitskyi - one of the German foil specialists. Even in women's foil we had medal in Women's foil at the European championship - it was Olha Leleiko, our current national coach. So no, we are pretty good fencing country, and depending on generations of our athletes some events are more "profitable" for us and some don't. 
    • Shemyakina that was a very strange story. She unexpectedly won the games but before and after she literally achieved nothing. After that success in 2012 she also completely disappeared. It's only in epee that such strange situations. That's why I've always preferred foil and sabre, because the top was more stable there, although that's changing now. The competition has grown a lot all over the world.
    • Sinner probably won't play in another edition of the Davis Cup. That shouldn't come as a surprise. Next season, Wimbledon and maybe Paris should be the goal.
    • No, our epee was good always, we have Shemyakina, who was Olympic Champion in 2012, Reizlin with bronze in 2020, medalists of Worlds like Kryvytska (who is our finisher today), Svichkar (who is our finisher in men's side) and Stankevych, European champion Kharkova, medals in other conpetitions from men's team epee who were one of the main contenders in Tokyo, but unfortunately failed to take a medal. 
    • Does Ukraine have good relations with Poland, or are they more cold, like, for example, Italy with France?
    • Until recently, Ukrainian fencing was just Kharlan and sabre. Maybe epee sometimes. I don't remember them ever was strong in foil. There was a time when Russia, Romania and Poland were strong in foil at that time when Italy dominated but I don't remember Ukraine anymore.   Hungarian women with Aida Mahomed were too strong for many years.
    • No surprise with Aaron Judge winning AL MVP and Shohei Ohtani winning NL MVP awards.   Ohtani is the second player in history to win MVP in both leagues. Frank Robinson (1961 Reds & 1966 Orioles) was the only one before.
